Post Op Day 8, mind

12-second video: Yesterday, texted a pic and video to Cheryl to remind her where we parked.
Packed minivan
August 12. Cheryl is turning it in today, September 22. Six weeks parked without moving a single mile, and probably lonely for its driver (me).

Have a nice day 😀

Today Cheryl awoke to 41 degrees in Kalispell, Montana. Counting yesterday afternoon when she landed, she’s got 40 hours to do what we need done to close out 2023 and prep us for 2024.

Invest wisely

Mountain chalet
Canceled two reservations (during the past three weeks) at this Chalet totaling five nights. Gifted both of them to Park employees.

What’s helping you more than anything else?

There’s something we do that provides a better return – more than anything else – on our time, effort, and expectations. Make sure you’re dialed into it. Make sure you know when and if it changes.

Eyesight update

Happy present moment.

Three weeks post eye surgery update.

Vision started noticeably improving after two weeks.

After three weeks (three days ago), getting same-day noticeable improvement from the morning to evening.

Late yesterday was the first time i noticed crispness or clarity. Up until last night, all vision and improvements have contained a fog or haze.

Looking forward to sunrise this morning to spend more time enjoying the gradual vision recovery (transformation).

Eye surgery update, mind

Three days ago, two weeks after surgery, a breakthrough in eye surgery recovery.

Awoke with some semblance of images. Beyond simply discerning light from dark.

This is what i and Dr. Kumar hoped for.

Yesterday it was ever so slightly better than the first breakthrough day.

Today, slightly better than yesterday.

The mind is a versatile organ.

The mind has the power to convince us whatever we’re thinking is true.

Couldn’t help but briefly think Dr. Kumar was/is handling me because he doesn’t want me to panic.

From the beginning, he said two to three weeks before i could fly again.

Last night the gas bubble disappeared and i removed the green medical bracelet.

Going into this morning’s second (day-13 post op) follow up eye exam, i already know Dr. Kumar will tell me one of the obvious things i’m acutely aware of.

“There is a decent amount of blood still in your eye.”

What i don’t know is what other insight he will share.

And then there’s the chance weather could close the office today.
